Change Background of Recent Apps - Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps

Hi XDA Members,
I Was just wondering if there is a way to change the background of the recent apps (The parts outlined in red in the attached file). I can't find it anywhere in settings so if there is a way and anyone knows please post! I Would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to do it if its possible at all.
Many Thanks,
Brad

Problems while porting a theme!!! [Please Read]

Hey,
I have a big problem. I have edited the framework-res.apk and the twframework-res.apk. The theme looks good, but I have the problem, that now I can't open messages and a few other apps. Does someone know how to fix that?

Editing those shouldn't affect other apps..
That may be caused by some other changes you did with your phone.

even i had the same problem...couldn't open messages,settings and many more...may be its only the the inproper resizing or something to do with .9pngs
Regarding .9.png files, i found it would be best to use Photoshop or gimp, open the extracted file and the decompiled file do the resizing on the extracted file and draw the .9patch with the pencil tool (shift helps to draw a line) similar as in the decompiled one. Because i heard draw9patch is a little hard to use. Hope this helps...

One thing is that if you don't use the (tw)framework-res.apk from the specific ROM you are using, force closes are eminent.

[Q]Transparent Settings app

Heeey this is a question to all the theme creators and dev's
Is it possible to create a Settings app with a transparent background?
I saw this on a thread for the Galaxy tab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051807 and I'd like to know if its possible to create a modded settings app for our galaxy 3
(I know they explain it on that thread but I was searching in the settings.apk but couldn't find the specific XML )
common +80 vieuws but no reply!?
Its just a question if there is someone that can mod the settings apk
or just tell me if it's even possible is it to hard to say Yes or Now
Yes it is possible but I have totally no knowledge about this so it can't be done by me...

[APP][2.3+] Anas App [12/8/12]

Hey guys, this app isn't a share or a mod. It's an app MADE by me. When you launch this app, you have to enter a certain number in the box and then it will convert it to kilograms or grams (depending on your choice). This is just a simple app, not any great one, as there are a million converter apps out there. But, it's important to me as I have built my first Android app. I have been studying basic Java at school for over a year, so after following a tutorial and working on this for 3 days, it wasn't so hard to come up with this. I built this app on Eclipse environment. I'm trying to learn more and build better Android apps. I just wanted to share my first work with you guys.
Screenshot and apk in attachment.
P.S. The apk's file is only 31.4 kb. Hehe!

These apps can't be ported because there are certain functions that only the higher API levels can perform. Furthermore, we can't decompile the source (java) code of any app. We can only decompile XML files.

You can decompile the java code from the .class file. Search for java decompiler in Google.
